I wanted to take today to stand and salute our soldiers, present and past.   

Without our soldiers, we would not be here.  We would not have the freedom we have, the luxuries we have, the language we have, etc. 

Every Veteran’s Day, we think of the soldiers of World War I, World War II and
Vietnam.
 

They, of course, deserve their due respect.  However, there are other wars we often forget about. Wars for which all the soldiers are no long with us, like the Civil War, but also wars for which there are many soldiers still walking proudly for serving their country, though they do not get the recognition. 

I am talking about the Korean War, the forgotten war.  

If you are like me, you know someone, either family or a friend that has served in every way in the last century up to and including the current war in
Iraq. 
 

Today, let’s all give a big thank you to are veterans. 

Thank you!
